Discussion time: We don’t talk anymore.

Hi guys good morning,

How are you feeling this morninggggggggggg!!! I missed you guys, I know we spoke like last week but it feels as if we haven’t talked in a long ass time.

In case you didn’t know (being a sly that you are) yesterday was my birthday yesterday yes 25th of June was my birthday and I had so much fun.

Thank you for your calls, prayers, messages, your mails and your wishes. Really guys thank you. I had like the most amazing party with my family members, i felt so loved but anyway that’s that, that’s in the past let’s jump into the topic for today.

I am currently speaking into a microphone right now, like I am using a personal assistant (that is voice to speech application) on my phone so my Godddddddddddddd it is so relieving.

I don’t know how I would have been able to type this blog post cuz I’m super tired but anyway I’m going to try and do justice to this topic.

So without further adoooo, the topic for today is “we don’t talk anymore” and I wanted to do another topic but I just decided to do this today due to happening around this period of my life right now, I know some of you might be able to relate to this so I feel like it’s a very good topic to talk about on this weeks interaction session.

So generally we have friends ! yes we have been making friends all our lives and like Aristotle said all those years ago man is a social animal and man cannot do without social interaction.

We’ve made friends all the way from nursery school, to primary school, secondary school, the university and if you are in Nigeria- NYSC friends etc some of these friends literally stick with you throughout your lifetime and it gets to a point whereby at the end of your life you have soooooooo many friends and you have made soooooo many networking connections.

But on the other hand, it always gets to a point in your life when you noticed that it seems to feel as if you can’t keep up with these friends, it looks as if people who you grew used to talking to everyday, who you couldn’t go a day without talking to are now birthday markers (I call birthday markers people that just pop up once in a year to wish you Happy Birthday).

Like I have this person on my contact list for the past five years and the only time we talk is when we have to say Happy Birthday to each other which is weird but we’re still friends, if he still calls me today for help I’m still going to answer him.

This is totally normal, it is a system and process of growth and in as much as we human beings try to maintain connections, we need to realise that we absolutely cannot stay in connection with everyone anybody.

I still feel guilty though, I feel guilty when I see my secondary school friends who were like my apron strings, who at that time i thought i couldn’t do without just become like “random” hello and hi friends.

They have found other friends, i obviously have also found my own friends. To the younger generation, It might seem like a rush but it is normal and in as much as you were once friends with someone I just feel like you should just try to keep in touch with them even if it’s just to message them once in a while.

I’m guilty of this I’m really guilty of this and I don’t want to name names but I know some of my long term friend are reading this right up right now, I know they felt offended when this happened but I’m sorry to say that’s life.

This doesn’t go to say I don’t miss you, I miss you and I wish we could connect like we used to, but seemingly speaking I don’t just think it is that possible, except if you guys have grown together in the same line of thoughts and opinions.

That being said, what do you feel about this discuss for today? do you feel how I feel or you just feel that is totally normal or you just feel like it is specific to the parties involved?

Talk to me in the comment section guys.

Do you have a great day guys, remember to wash your hands, give virtual hugs, COVID-19 is still out there guys please we need to limit the numbers, do less, don’t do more, like at this point in time less is literally more.
